Reality star and fashion designer Kelly Osbourne has opened up about her journey into motherhood, saying how much she enjoys life with her son.
In an interview with E! News, Osbourne spoke about her son, born last year with partner Sid Wilson. “I’m a mom now, I love it. It’s the best thing that has ever happened to me,” she said, adding, “It’s scary as f–k because you don’t want to make a mistake.”
Osbourne is the daughter of rock star Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne, and was featured on the MTV show “The Osbournes” in the early 2000s. Sharon Osbourne has previously spoken about having undergone an abortion as a teenager, and how it still haunts her as an adult.
“I had an abortion at 17 and it was the worst thing I ever did. It was the first time I’d had sex, and that was rotten. I’d always thought it was going to be all violins, and it was just awful,” she said in a 2004 interview, explaining that her mother told her that she had to “get rid of it.”

“She told me where the clinic was, then virtually pushed me off. She was so angry. She said I’d got myself in this mess, now she had to get me out,” Sharon continued. “But she didn’t come. I went alone. I was terrified. It was full of other young girls, and we were all terrified and looking at each other and nobody was saying a bloody word. I howled my way through it, and it was horrible.”
Sharon further said she wouldn’t recommend abortion to anybody, and believes it led to her experiencing three miscarriages. “In life, whatever it is, you pay somewhere down the line,” she concluded. “You have to be accountable.”
For Kelly’s part, she seems to be relishing her role as a new mother — and her parents are there to give her advice and support. “That it’s not about you,” she said of the best wisdom she’d received from her parents. “Now, your life is about your child.”
Today, Kelly said she loves seeing her son grow. “He is almost crawling, which is amazing. He is kind of like scooting backwards and turning in circles,” she said. “Now my favorite thing is that he is, like, mom-obsessed, just where, if he sees me, he is reaching for me, and I love it.”
